SODELPA YOUTH leader Jope Koroisavu is still being questioned at the CID HQ by officers. A few prominent figures have dropped by, including the Commissioner of Police, Human Rights Commission Director Ashwin Raj, lawyer Aman Ravindra Singh and Party Leader Sitiveni Rabuka

 Sadly, those of us who burned all our energy (making enemies along the way) in promoting SODELPA under the leadership of Ro Teimumu Kepa, now feel that the party under Rabuka's leadership has no moral right to lecture the FFP government. With Koroisavu's arrest, history is repeating itself.
SA RAUTA MADA 
SODELPA youth should kick Rabuka out of the party, if they want to claim the moral high ground against the FFP government. Let us not forget that Rabuka and the present lot are all protected by IMMUNITY

Among those whom Rabuka had thrown into the Central Police Station cells for peacefully protesting against his 1990 racist Constitution was the young Aiyaz Sayed Khaiyum; Rabuka later got all of them charged under his draconian Public Order Act; one was kept locked for the next six months, and the beatings he endured is still troubling him in 2017. The worst victim of Rabuka's violence was Dr Anirudh Singh of USP:

Simon,

In case you are wondering why we have not approved any of your comments. We have not approved because of the vile anti-Muslim comments, and also they are always full of expletives.
Thanks

Editor,
A True Patriot
The youth leader ( and in the context of his police interrogation what political party he comes from is irrelevant ) who staged that one man protest against State torture of citizens on International Torture Day
should be hailed a true patriot.
In her letter to the Canberra Times ( 27/6 ) Ann Darbyshire draws our attention to this insightful gem from E A Bucchianeri, author of Brushstrokes of a Gadfly :
" It's not unpatriotic to denounce an injustice committed on our behalf, perhaps it's the most patriotic thing to do".
The Fijian youth leader Jone Koroisavu did just that : denounce an injustice.
He is a true patriot.
It is shameful for him to be treated as if he is a terrorist.
If peaceful protest is not allowed in the " true democracy" crafted by Bainimarama and Khaiyum, what is?
I remember raising this same question in Rabuka's republic.
I said then in my letter to editor if peaceful protest is not allowed then I am not sure about Fiji going republic ( unilaterally ) but it's certainly going bananas!
Are we still going bananas 3 decades and 3 coups later?
Sincerely,
Rajend Naidu
